Bottleneck

[skang2081]

Hi.

 

I have a current build:

 

CPU: Ryzen 5 2400g

GPU: ASUS ROG RX 570 4GB

RAM: 2x4 GB 2666mhz

MOBO: MSI B350M Bazooka

 

I'm planning to upgrade my GPU to an XFX RX 5700. I'm planning on upgrading my CPU to a R5 2600, but I'll be staying of the 2400G for a couple weeks. It doesn't really matter since I'm upgrading, but will this be a significant bottleneck, or will it be something that only hits the performance by a couple of FPS?

 

Thanks.

depends on the games and the performance target

Unless you're using it for a workload that uses more than 8 threads, (those are few and far between) you should be just fine.

Better idea to save a little, and get a 3600. It gives a significant boost to performance, such that it comes within 3% of the performance of a 9900K, and it shouldn't cost you much more. It'll also work just fine on your motherboard. The 2400g will still give your GPU a full PCIe 3.0 x8 connection, and that will only just barely limit an RTX 2080ti in select few workloads.
